Equation of line parallel to y = -0.75x that passes through (8,0) is: y = -0.75x-6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation of line is:

y=-0.75x

The coefficient of x is the slope of the line so the slope of given line is: -0.75

As parallel lines have equal slopes so the required equation of line will have the same slope.

The slope-intercept form is:

y = mx+b

Putting the value of the slope

y = -0.75x+b

To find the value of b, putting the point in the equation

0 = -0.75(8)+b\\0 = -6+b\\b = 6

Putting the values of m and b, we get

y = -0.75x-6

Hence,

Equation of line parallel to y = -0.75x that passes through (8,0) is: y = -0.75x-6

Find the generating function for the sequence 1,-2,4,-8, 16, ...
kirill [66]

Answer:

  a(x)=\dfrac{1}{1+2x}

Step-by-step explanation:

The generating function a(x) produces a power series ...

  a(x)=a_0+a_1x+a_2x^2+a_3x^3+\dots

where the coefficients are the elements of the given sequence.

We observe that the given sequence has the recurrence relation ...

  a_0=1;a_n=-2a_{n-1} \quad\text{for n $>$ 0}

This can be rearranged to ...

  a_n+2a_{n-1}=0

We can formulate this in terms of a(x) as follows, then solve for a(x).

\sum\limits^{\infty}_{n=1} {a_{n}x^n} =a(x)-a_0 \quad\text{and}\\\\\sum\limits^{\infty}_{n=1} {2a_{n-1}x^n} =(2x)a(x) \quad\text{so}\\\\\sum\limits^{\infty}_{n=1} {(a_n+2a_{n-1})x^n}=0=a(x)-a_0+2xa(x)\\\\a(x)=\dfrac{a_0}{1+2x}=\dfrac{1}{1+2x}

The generating function is ...

  a(x) = 1/(1+2x)
